I try my best to show them how the policies always result in nothing good for the people they intend to help. But there are two problems: 1) they just jump on whatever other circumstances led to the bad effects and the discussion goes nowhere; and 2) they inherently suspect anything logical or factual I say because they know my ideological leanings probably produce my own confirmation bias. Are there any tips to overcome these problems? All these people are activist- and policy-types and I really fear for the future if they enter into positions of power without questioning their assumptions.
